Sony has a patent with a PS3 controller connected to a PSP

sonyWhen playing on a PSP, I often find myself with a lot of difficulty managing with the controls, especially on games like Tekken 6. Sometimes, those buttons can be a little unwieldy. I’m sure a lot of you have thought of this before, but apparently, Sony has too. In fact, they have a patent for it. In this patent, you’ll see a PS3 controller hooked up to a PSP.

It’s not crisp-cut clear as to what this indicates. The PSPgo already allows players to use a controller for gaming, so it would appear the same feature may come to all other PSPs. Judging by the illustration, you may be able to connect the PSP and the controller directly, or you may need a hinged peripheral to make the connection.

 

Either way, this seems like a pretty good option for many who have trouble with the size of the PSP controls. The solution may also provide you with a second analog stick, as well as a second set of should buttons.
